an atom will gain or lose electrons to obtain 8 electrons in it's outer shell. In other words, elements want to reach an electron configuration of the nearest noble gas.
D
Molecules consist of multiple atoms put together to create a new form.
Answer:
M of HI = 5.4 M.
Explanation:
- We have the rule: at neutralization, the no. of millimoles of acid is equal to the no. of millimoles of the base.
<em>(XMV) acid = (XMV) base.</em>
where, X is the no. of (H) or (OH) reproducible in acid or base, respectively.
M is the molarity of the acid or base.
V is the volume of the acid or base.
<em>(XMV) HI = (XMV) Ca(OH)₂.</em>
For HI; X = 1, M = ??? M, V = 25.0 mL.
For Ca(OH)₂, X = 2, M = 1.5 M, V = 45.0 mL.
<em>∴ M of HI = (XMV) Ca(OH)₂ / (XV) HI</em> = (2)(1.5 M)(45.0 mL) / (1)(25.0 mL) = <em>5.4 M.</em>
B- Carbon dioxide, every other option listed is composed of more than one thing.
a) 6 electrons - because atomic number is the same as the electron number
b) 4 - because 6-2=4
c) Covalent bonds - it needs 4 more electrons for a full outer shell.
